I'm doing all of my testing with net-wireless/broadcom-sta. |

|
| 24 |
package.license seems to unmask the package which otherwise won't |
| 25 |
emerge. ACCEPT_LICENSE does negate the need manually accept the |
| 26 |
license. So they seem to perform different functions. skype will |
| 27 |
still emerge without package.license? Maybe there's a difference in |
| 28 |
the license which is responsible for the different behavior? |
